In these uncertain times it's hard to say whether or not some of our favorite fall traditions will take place. Even if they do, it's certainly going to look a lot different than in years past.

Rainbow Tile DIY Backsplash with the Cricut Maker
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. Transform a dull bathroom with this cheerful rainbow tile DIY backsplash... grab your Cricut Maker and some permanent adhesive vinyl and create a beautiful (budget friendly!), completely custom backsplash. Hi friends, I hope you're having a great week! With so much time at home lately, I've been tackling some home DIY projects that have been on my list of to-do's for way too long (like since-we-moved-in too long!) Since we've lived here we've renovated every room/area on the main level. With the exception of doing our daughter Brighton's nursery for the One Room Challenge, we haven't touched the Continue Reading
Build Your Own Grilled Steak Kabob Bar
Create a simple and delicious Steak Kabob Bar with tender grilled sirloin, a smorgasboard of fresh veggies and a trio of scrumptious sauces. It's the perfect summer food bar for family and friends. Grilled food is one of my favorite things about summer... if we lived in a warmer climate we would probably never even use the oven. And my friends, there is NOTHING like the smell of beef grilling (and the taste is pretty amazing too). Grilled Beef Kabobs are a summer staple so I decided to turn a simple kabob recipe into an entertaining and family friendly Grilled Steak Kabob Bar! Beef kabobs are the perfect summer fuel. A 3 oz serving of beef packs 25 grams of protein plus Continue Reading
DIY Mermaid Serving Tray Tutorial
See how easy it is to create a beautiful, multi-dimensional DIY Mermaid Serving Tray. The dazzling paint and scale-like pattern is reminiscent of a holographic mermaid's tail! This mermaid-inspired stenciled tray tutorial is sponsored by DecoArt. As always, the ideas and opinions I share are mine and 100% authentic, as I only work with brands I love. I haven't been thrifting in quite awhile, but when I do, trays are one of my favorite things to pick up and transform. So thus far I've made over 2 that I absolutely love. The first was this Slatted Tray I made with chalky finish paint and stir sticks and the 2nd (and my favorite so far) is this enchanted mermaid serving Continue Reading
How to Make a DIY Shiplap Sign with a Cricut Maker
See how to make a DIY Shiplap Sign with a Cricut Maker with this simple tutorial. It will be your most versatile piece of decor! I think pretty much all of my favorite decorations have been touched by a Cricut in some way shape or form. I especially love cutting wood with my Cricut Maker. I love how intricate the Cricut Maker can get with it's cuts. I'm pretty sure I held my breath the entire time it cut out my daughter's 1st birthday cake topper, just waiting for it to fail. Oh Maker, why do I ever doubt you when you continue to blow my mind, time and again? On the flip side, the wood cuts for this DIY Shiplap aren't intricate so the cut time was super quick. A heck of a lot easier Continue Reading
How to Make Fizzing Mermaid DIY Bath Salts
